Re: MG2065 - project updates - Grinch/Dumb & Dumber / Popeye update WIP pics #365

I thought the original 'grin' expression was great. There was a bit of a lack of upper lip/too much gums and the chip in the tooth was a bit extreme. You had sculpted about half of his tooth gone, but in reality it's just a small section.

But again, I REEALLY liked the grin you did first and would hate to see that go away, you really captured the character.

I'd imagine you already have plenty of ref, but if you need it, I can go through and cap the movie for you.

Looks great I would love to see it side by side with the reference used to better see it. I think many times people make blind observations on their percieved vision of the actor. Also says a lot about you as an artist, its rare to see an artist go back and redo a sculpt to make it perfect. Amazing work bud!

I wrote it in the D&D thread, think all thats missing is the cheeks need to be sharper lined and smaller, then its awesome

Looks good all I see is the smile is a little bigger maybe in the pic other than that you nailed it!

Seems like his eyes might be a bit too close together and high on the head. The neck also seems a bit too wide. The nose is also just a little too high but really looking great so far! Here is a QUICK photoshop that hopefully explains it. Most of the other features actually line up REALLY well (jaw size and shape, mouth, etc) so I think just some small changes could go a long way.

wow...Tesio just showed almost what i was thinking....great explanation via picture...:)...looks great tho mike...but those mods right there should help out alot...
 
Re: MG2065 - project updates - Grinch/Dumb & Dumber / Popeye update WIP pics #365

You know, I was hoping someone would do that with the wip pics so thanks a ton tesio. I would love to see some paint applied as well in photoshop like the eyes.

This is great, I'm all over this and will make the changes suggested.

I posted in the D&D thread but saw something new that I might add.

1. His side Jaw Line, looks like it should be more narrow, like a V shape...Not the actual Bottom Jaw but the line from Cheek to Jaw. On the Sculpt it sticks out a little as it meets the Jaw but in the real photo of Jim, it's more smooth straight to the Jaw.

2. His forehead hairline/ Line Up, is actually crook it in the movie, the right hand side corner is cut higher and then slightly slants down towards the left side, instead of being straight across.

3. Ears should stick out more, and be a bit bigger, I know the hat will cover the top part, but the lobes should be bigger like in the pic.

I hope this makes sense, and I think Tesio and the rest of the guy's nailed the rest.

Can't wait! Keep going Mike you almost got it!! :)

Thanks mike. I see what you mean. Working on it. I might as well go right into ace ventura next while I'm in the jim carrey zone.

Both head sculpts will be available. I'm not giving up on the painted one yet, just wanted to make an alternative for myself and you guys. It will also come in nicely for the 'Limo Driver' bashes.

Updated: shortened nose, thinned down the hair, sanded the chin, broadened the smile, added eyebrows, wrinkles to the eyes, sculpted the ears. Still a WIP, I'm not completely satisfied with this yet but wanted to let you guys have a look.

Something is throwing it off and I can't put my fingers on it.

The sculpt looks long in the face, but when I look at all the facial features its the same on the picture :dunno

I think the hair should be rounded on the sides more, the front straighter.

Maybe rounding the side hair will bring this sculpt home.

Only my opinion though


You got this MG!! :hi5:

I think it may be the overall headshape. I think the sculpt is too long. Robbie's point about the eyes is good. But I also think this sculpt is narrower in head shape than LLoyd
